For use in mapping large archaeological objects, new close-range aerial photographic equipment is now added to the AnthSpace infrastructure. The equipment is for kite aerial photography (KAP). The setup consists of the following items:

Camera: Canon PowerShot G11 (running CHDK)
Rigs: DuneCam Compact (w. GentLED Focus), GS-1 Gyro Servo Ortho Rig (custom experimental design by Peter Bults at the KapShop)
Kites: Becot modified Sutton Flowform 16 (w. two fuzzy tails), Rokkaku 6.5'
Line: 500m Dacron line, large hoop winder, carabiner and line loop

Except for the camera, all equipment was purchased by me from the KapShop.
